Crock Pot Pulled Pork (Chicken)
Yield: 8-12 servings
Ingredients
Pork:
- 3 lbs boneless pork butt (or pork shoulder)
- 2 (12 oz) cans Coca Cola
- 1/4 cup chili powder
- 3 Tbsp garlic salt
- 1+ cups BBQ sauce (I use Sweet Baby Ray’s Original)
- 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 1 (12 oz) can Coca Cola
- 2 Tbsp chili powder
- 1 1/2 Tbsp garlic salt
- 1/2+ cup BBQ sauce (I use Sweet Baby Ray’s Original)
Directions
- Place pork (chicken) in slow cooker and season with chili powder and garlic salt.
- Pour Coca Cola in slow cooker, adding just enough to almost cover pork (chicken) — you do not need to cover meat completely.
- Cook on low 8 hours.
- Remove half of liquid from slow cooker using a ladel into a bowl (reserve in case you need to add some moisture back in).
- Shred pork (chicken) in slow cooker with two forks. Add BBQ sauce, stir, add more BBQ sauce and/or reserved liquid to reach desired consistency.
- Cover and cook another hour on low to allow flavors to develop and meat to become juicy. Stir before serving.
